[@mablak2039]

Thanks again for having us Amber, Richard, and GDQ!
It's super fun explaining our strats, and I think Ruffled nailed it as usual

[@GoldenWowProductions]

Your commentary was amazing, thank you for showing off these super nostalgic games!

[@FlintlockYT]

This is so good! Worms is already hilarious but these strats are something else. I bet it would be a hit at a live event.

[@quailron1581]

From the very first shot, this is offically some Revolver Ocelot stuff. Holy cow.

[@thexbigxgreen]

This was amazing, I was tempted to start cheering at certain moments but it wouldn't go over well to hear someone applauding from the toilet lol

[@Endymion0021]

Seeing worms run makes me feel so nostalgic. Sitting back with my brothers and friends, doing hotseat (taking turns on the same PC) and watch the mayhem unfold.

[@vadimfedenko]

you should definetely come back to the game. the online is still there with alot of people to have fun with

[@blablablablabla504]

@@vadimfedenko Most people who still play are way too skilled for average player xd

[@Innosos]

It's been eons since Worms 2 released and it's still such great fun to tweak the weapons in that game. Dang I feel old.
Very charming presentation and runner. Thank you for presenting the game!

[@SkullbombRaging]

Worms is an excellent game and I'm glad you ran it!

[@DanielHarveyDyer]

This run is accessible to understand but skilled and well routed and features a nostalgic childhood classic, so it deserves engagement to boost its viewership

[@darci5478]

This worms run was one of the most interesting and enternaining runs I have watched in a while, thanks for the show!

[@ongoingprocessfailed]

15:43 saw him lean in to focus and I was wondering what the plan was, the payoff had me smiling.
Great run, I definitely didn't consider Worms as a Speedrun game but damn if I wasn't left wanting more.

[@ethreal1]

Honestly the best way I can describe this is sith jar jar, the seemingly clumsy behavior mixed with the random deadly accuracy….

[@Zzzlol94]

Worms 2 was also my introduction to the series. It was so much fun creating custom rulesets and just causing carnage, much more so than Armageddon and the later games. All of the older games are absolutely fantastic. And rage inducing.

[@axelvc8164]

After all these years Worms is still the best versus game you can play with anyone. Awesome run!

[@phoenixwhittaker]

Oh man what a blast from the past and utter delight that was. I played a TON of Worms growing up so it was really enjoyable to see it ran and the whole crew were very entertaining to watch.

[@GusZiliotto]

this needs to be on a live event

[@Nikkes02]

I played Worms 1 and its predecessor, Scorched Earth, a lot with my friends as a kid. Good stuff!

[@leandervr]

So many fantastic moments in this run! Like the mindbogglingly awesome grenade at 1:21:44. Look at his game-face!

[@SamtasticOnline]

This was so fun to watch! Incredible run!

[@SANumber169]

These runs are incredible and way more people need to see these. Best 3hrs I've spent in a while. Watched this a few weeks ago and came back to comment, because I already liked the video and can't like it a second time.

[@Faaabooo]

can u imagine? not knowing him, you ask - maybe we will play some Worms 2 today? he replies - ok, that's a good idea!
and after that u never launch the game gain. never.

[@AcenZac]

Amazing. That was real fun to watch. Mind blowing shots :P

[@leandervr]

That was awesome! Worms has been such a big part of my childhood, I've played the first up to world party for hours on end against my brothers and friends.

[@inygs2807]

Ahahaha wow, this was phenomenal. Thanks for the video, all.

[@Okiesmokie]

I played an absolute ton of worms 2 online back in the day, and I am amazed that tricks created in the 90s have still carried the same name, like the indian rope trick

[@QuasselQuokka]

what a run! if i would have seen this run as a 5 year old, you would be my personal god forever :D Now im "just" immensely impressed!

[@Ultracity6060]

Underrated run.

[@spongerobert]

Worms 2 and Worms Armageddon is basically my childhood although ironically Worms Armageddon was the 1st one I played and we only had the demo from some or other demo disk but even in the demo you could play hotseat (not all the weapons and features was available though) and it kept us entertained for ages. It's very similar to another old game called Scorched Earth which I think was for DOS

[@gcextol8129]

Need this at main event :)

[@puckfigs9902]

commentary is absolutely brilliant

[@user-sc8fq2yz5h]

This was amazing! Nice shooting!

[@funx24X7]

True to the title I've never seen a worms speedrun before, what a treat to get two of them back to back. Was hoping for some rope shenanigans and was NOT disappointed.

[@scafx08]

I wish id ever be that good at worms

[@DarkAngelZz59]

I love worms, wouldn't mind seeing more and showcases too

[@juppiewh]

This was awesome!

[@user-et3xn2jm1u]

Great run! edit: wow it's just absurd start to finish

[@Ossi_Petteri]

Now I want to see worms run at a main event

[@Patrickstul]

Awesome !

[@TheAcousticCitizen]

I just bought Armageddon a week ago on steam. All time classic.

[@leandervr]

1:41:00 Oh my god, that was art.

[@liontamer4132]

this is cool to see, especially since my only exposure to the worms franchise before this was a game on my nokia brick phone

[@Netbug009]

Never realized this game wasn't randomized before.

[@AutoReroll]

The strats in this run feel like the "Heist" episode of Rick and Morty.
People act wacky and unpredictable, then win.

[@thetruemarioandsonicfanboy]

My favourite worms game is worms 3D for the Nintendo GameCube now that is a classic.

[@M00SHTY]

wow. this is proper skill

[@ThomasRuleZzZzZ]

very good.

[@marticus42]

46:50 Kami-Combo!

[@tombrady1434]

For a good 10minutes I thought you were controlling both teams since the CPU manipulation was so good!

[@DragonsLoverQc]

Impressive. What about Worms World Party missions now?

[@RuffledBricks]

I do run those as well, but they're nowhere near as good as these two runs.

[@larrymantic2635]

1:39:15 Worms Lore

[@ziggykatz12]

37:00 yoooooooooo

[@coopdlloop]

Wurms

[@simplyhard]

You can speedrun Worms?

[@M0torsagmannen]

man, had no idea how deterministic this game was, i played it a lot as a kid with friends. but all the AI manipulations are super interersting.

[@ThatBenKraft]

Erm so like worms?

[@NerdGlassGamingPA]

22:00 Do you really manipulate "CPU" thou? Doesn't cpu mean "central processing unit" ? Does he mean CP "computer player" ?

[@ChurchnSarge]

Video games use CPU to abbreviate/denote characters/units controlled by the game. The use is correct in this context.

[@wonderdogbenji5704]

hi

[@real-jd5rc]

ok
